ok, so far I count Panthers, Devils, and Capitals fans. Anyone cheer for a team in a real hockey city? Just curious.

I have been a Boston Bruins fan since 1967. I proudly wore the #9 of Johnny Bucyk in my playing days. Its a pleasure watching them this year. I am waiting for the inevitable plane crash.

Matt and I are devils fans and I'm sure he'll resurface now that this thread is around.

Go Wild!
We're having a tough year, but we still have Koivu Burnett Boogarten! and some good new guys.
Somehow have not gotten any free corporate tickets this year. Sucks.
Also Uof Minnesota Duluth!
And best of all - U of M women's hockey, so sweet. Best Players In the Nation, suck it all of you!
It's sweet to have so many good hockey teams nearby, and that MN and Wisconsin and NDak can tangle all season.
I also got Mr Selby and really really sweet vintage North Stars jersey for christmas.

I haven't watched hockey since the Minnesota Moose were the closest thing the Twin Cities had to a "professional" hockey team.

I would like to say thats not gonna happen , but Thomas is just not that good. he's a flopper and I never trust a goalie who tries to play on his back. But he is playing above his level ...What is his GAA? 2.02?? Not bad
And then you have Fernandez at about the same.
Could be good.

The Rangers have one hell of a goalie and they could easily upset anyone in the first couple of rounds. He's probably the best goalie in the east.
Tim Thomas is a nice story and seems like a nice guy and he's a throwback to the pre-Roy days but he's not the guy you want in your net come playoff time. As for Fernandez, he's only here cause he benefited playing behind the dull boring shut down system of his father in law, Jacques Lemaire. I could think of ten goalies I'd rather have over him.

Ya know, its not the best goalie that wins games. its the goalie that THINKS he's the best. Thats the difference between the cup and everything else. Ya think Cheevers was the best? Hell no, nor was Eddie Johnston, but those fuckers played like they THOUGHT they were.
The Rangers need a team in front of said goalie.
I'm just gonna enjoy this Bruins run. Nine straight now isnt it?

You were merely translating. I'm just not a trash-talker re: sports, and honestly, it really turns me off. I guess at heart I am still a goofy hippy. I don't boo my own team, either, on principle, so I really am a fucking Pollyanna.  |
